- Thermoplastic copolyetherester elastomers which are suitable for use as Component A in the practice of the present invention are defined below. The term "thermoplastic copolyetherester elastomer" as used herein means a segmented polymer comprising about 30% to about 80% by weight of recurring linear etherester (soft) segments derived from difunctional polyether glycol and dicarboxylic acid and about 70% to about 20% by weight of recurring linear ester (hard) segments derived from organic diol and aromatic dicarboxylic acid.

I. du Pont de Nemours and Company.
- Suitable segmented thermoplastic copolyetherester elastomers derived from terephthalic acid, polytetramethylene ether glycol and 1,4-butanediol may be purchased from du Pont under the trademark HYTREL* elastomer.
- Further information on HYTREL* elastomers is contained in New Commercial Polymers, 1969-1975, by Hans-Georg Elias, Midland Macromolecular Institute, Midland, Michigan 48640, translated from the German by Mary M. Exner; Gordon and Breach Science Publishers (New York, London and Paris) at Pages 85 to 89, and in "Polymerization Reaction & New Polymers, "Segmentedd Polyester Thermoplastic Elastomers" by W. K. Witsiepe, published in Polymerization Reactions & New Polymers at pages 39 to 59, Amer. Chem. Soc. - Advances in Chemistry Series No.
- Component B of the above formulation is preferably a styrene/maleic anhydride polymer. The styrene may be replaced in whole or in part by other vinylaromatic monomers such as alpha-methyl styrene, chlorostyrene, bromostyrene, p-methyl styrene and vinyl toluene. Similarly the maleic anhydride can be replaced in whole or in part by another unsaturated dicarboxylic anhydride such as itaconic, aconitic or citraconic anhydride. Component B optionally contains a termonomer such as C1 to C3 alkyl acrylate or methacrylate, acrylonitrile or methacrylonitrile. The preferred termonomer, where present, is methyl methacrylate.

- Component C is typically an ABS or MBS type polymer that is to say a diene rubber substrate grafted with styrene and either acrylonitrile, methyl methacrylate, methyl acrylate or a mixture of these monomers. However the rubber need not be the conventional polybutadiene or butadiene/styrene copolymer since any rubber with a glass' transition temperature below 0°C. can be used.. Such rubbers include those which may provide the substrate for rubber modified SMA polymers described below. The styrene may be replaced in whole or in part by other styrenic monomer such as described with reference to Component B above. The acrylonitrile may be replaced in whole or in party by methacrylonitrile.
- Component C may be replaced in whole or in part by a rubber modified styrene-maleic anhydride polymer. Rubber modified SMA polymers are prepared by polymerizing monomers of the type and amounts used to prepare Component B above, e.g., styrene, maleic anhydride and optionally methyl methacrylate, in the presence of the rubber in such a way that the polymerizing monomers are grafted onto the rubber substrate and a matrix copolymer of essentially the same composition as the graft copolymer is simultaneously generated. Suitable methods of producing such rubber modified copolymers are well known in the art and a typical process is described in U.S. Patent No. 3,919,354.

The rubber component is conventionally a diene rubber such as polybutadiene, polymers of butadiene with a comonomer such as styrene or acrylonitrile which contain at least 60% and preferably 80% by weight of butadiene or a butadiene based block or radial-block rubber. Other rubbers such as EPDM rubber, polypentenamer, polyisoprene, polychloroprene, polyacrylate rubbers and the like can, if desired, also be used.
- In addition to the above components the polyblends of the invention can advantageously contain other additives such as plasticizers, antioxidants, stabilizers, flame- retardants, fibers, mineral fibers, dyes, pigments and the like.
- The components of the polyblend can be blended together by any convenient process. Usually however they are extrusion blended or compounded in a high intensity blender such as a Banbury Mixer. When using greater than about 30% by weight of Component A the use of extrusion blending is preferred.
- Components B and C can be together provided by the formulations described in U.S. Patents 4,305,869 and 4,197,376 and then blended with Component A.

The components described below are blended in a number of different ratios and tested for various properties.
- ABS-1 - prepared by the graft emulsion polymerization of styrene and acrylonitrile in a weight ratio of 70:30 in the presence of polybutadiene. ABS-1 contains 40% by weight of polybutadiene.

- The components used in the working examples contain- - ing up to 30% Hytrel are compounded in a Banbury at 180 to 250°C. The components used in the working examples containing 30% or more Hytrel are compounded in a Killion extruder at 200 to 250°C. The resulting blends are injection molded on an Arburg Molding Machine at 220 to 260°C. and 500 to 2000 psi. The molded samples are subjected to the following tests:

- Tensile (ASTM-D-638) results given in megapascals (MPa).
- Modulus (ASTM-D-638) results given in megapascals (MPa).
- In Examples 1 to 26 various polyblends are prepared and tested and the results tabulated in Tables 1 to 5. Control Examples identified as C-1 to C-12 are included in Tables 1 to 5 for comparison purposes. All examples are prepared using 0.3% by weight of either Ethanox 330 or Goodrite 3114 and Glycolube TS (2.5%) based on total weight of polymeric components (A), (B) and (C). The examples in Tables 1 and 2 use Ethanox; the others use Goodrite. The amounts of the polymeric components (A), (B) and (C) used are parts by weight and, except for minor deviations in certain examples, are calculated to add up to a 100 parts by weight total.
- Examples 1 to 7, which are tabulated in TABLE 1, illustrate the improved Izod impact obtained in an SMA/ABS polyblend when using from 3 to 85% by weight of a segmented copolyetherester elastomer (HYTREL 5556) in combination with from 7.5 to 48.5% by weight of an SMA polymer and from 7 to 48.5% by weight of an ABS polymer.
- The Gardner impact values also increase over the control (C-l) with increasing amounts of the copolyetherester up to about 70% by weight (Example 6) with no substantial difference being observed at 85% by weight (Example 7). The Vicat softening point increases significantly over the control (C-1) when using about 50% weight or more of the copolyetherester.
- Examples 8 to 15, which are tabulated in Table 2, illustrate the improved Izod impact obtained in an SMA/ABS polyblend when using 3 to 85% by weight of a segmented copolyetherester elastomer (HYTREL 4056) in combination with from 7.5 to 48.5% by weight of an SMA polymer and from 7 to 48.5% by weight of an ABS polymer. In this system the Gardner impact values increase over the control (C-l) with increasing amount of the copolyetherester until about 50% by weight of the polyetherester before falling off to values lower than the Control (C-l). The Vicat softening temperature begins to decrease significantly when using about 50% or more of the polyetherester to a Vicat of 112°C at the 85% by weight level.
- In this series of examples, which are tabulated in TABLE 3, polyblends containing from 3 to 70% by weight of a thermoplastic copolyetherester (HYTREL 72460), from 15 to 35% by weight of an SMA polymer and 15 to 35% of an ABS polymer are compared to a polyblend of SMA and ABS polymers (C-1) and unmodified copolyetherester (C-2). In this series the Gardner impact increases over Control C-1 with increasing amounts of the copolyetherester whereas the Izod impact decreases compared to Control (C-l). Once again the Vicat temperature does not change significantly over C-1 until the copolyetherester level reaches 50% by weight. In certain end use applications wherein the molded or extruded part is in the form of large sheet, e.g. instrument panels, panels on recreational vehicles, refrigerator panels, the higher Gardner impact values would be more of a consideration than the Izod values when selecting a molding or extrusion composition. On the other hand, when considering smaller parts, e.g. rear view mirror housings, hub caps, automobile grilles, cassettes, and appliance housings, etc. the Izod values may be more of a consideration than the Gardner values.
- The polymer components used in Examples 19 to 22, which are tabulated in TABLE 4, are similar to Examples 8 to 15 except that ABS-2 is used in place of the ABS-3 used in Examples 8 to 15. Also included are Control Examples C-3 to C-7. When comparing Examples 19 and 20 to Control C-3 and Examples 21 and 22 to Control C-4 it is noted that both Izod and Gardner impacts increase when using 7.5 and 15% of the copolyetherester (Component A) while the heat temperature remains the same. A comparison of Examples 21 and 22 with Control C-4 also shows that both impact values increase while the Vicat temperature remains the same. Note also that when the SMA polymer (Component B) is omitted (Controls C-5 to C-7) the Vicat softening point is lowered significantly even when replacing the SMA component by an SAN component.
- The polymer components used in Examples 23 to 26, which are tabulated in TABLE 5, are similar to those used in Examples 16 to 18 except that ABS-2 is used in place of the ABS-3 used in Examples 16 to 18. A comparison of Example 23 with Control C-8 illustrates that the presence of 7.5% by weight of the polyetherester (Component A) in the particular control composition of C-8 has no appreciable effect on Gardner or Izod impact. A comparison of Controls C-8, C-9 and C-12 shows the influence of the SMA polymer component on the impact strength of SMA/ABS blends. A comparison of Examples 24 and 25 with Control C-9 shows that 7.5% and 15% of the polyetherester has a significant effect on Gardner and Izod impact. Thus the desired degree of improvement in immpact strength can be obtained by a proper selection of the amount of each component in the blend. Controls C-10 and C-11 show the effect of the SMA polymer (Component B) on the Vicat softening point. Without the SMA the Vicat temperature drops to that of the ABS component even when the copolyester is present (C-11). A Vicat softening point of at least 110°C. is preferred in the polyblends of the present invention.
- The amounts of the various polymeric components used in the present invention can be varied within wide limits in order to obtain the desired properties in the final molded or extruded product. In this regard the amount of the polyetherester component will be in the range of from 3 to 90% by weight. Amounts of polyetherester in the range of from 3 to 30% by weight, are preferred for some applications where no change in Vicat temperature (over that of the SMA/ABS components) is preferred. In other applications where an increase in both Gardner and Izod impacts is sought, the preferred amounts of the polyether will be in the range of 3 to 20% by weight.
- The amount of the SMA polymer component used is in the range of from 5 to 70% by weight and the amount of the ABS component used is in the range of from 5 to 70% by weight. As seen in the working examples, the amount of the SMA and-ABS polymer components used will depend on the properties. sought in the final product. For a balance of higher impact values and higher Vicat temperatures it is preferred to select amounts such that the weight ratio of the SMA polymer to the ABS polymer is in the range of from 20:80 to 80:20, with 30:70 to 70:30 being especially preferred when using 3 to 20% by weight of the polyetherester component.
- Especially good impact values can be expected when the SMA polymer component is a rubber modified SMA polymer as described above, which contains from 5 to 35%, preferably 5 to 25%, by weight of rubber component. Such rubber modified SMA polymers when used in combination with the ABS polymer can provide a high rubber content to the blend. Optionally, the rubber modified SMA can replace part or all of the ABS component.
